Truth of our Hearts

Chapter 1: Auradon

Hi everybody! This is my first fic about the Descendants movie, and I finally don't complain about the canon pairings. Normally, I always find a reason why a certain ship isn't right. Not the case with this movie!

Warning for an OC: Bellatrix Aurora Beau. She's Audrey's younger twin sister and a very close friend of Ben's. People rumor them to be a secret couple just because they spend a lot of time together, mostly it's just about Tourney or Bella's duty as the Student's President of Auradon Prep. Bellatrix is nothing like Audrey, where Audrey is the perfect princess who's love lies in money and dresses, Bella loves casual dresses with leather jackets and enjoys Tourney like all boys do. Bella wants to be a Tourney player, but she can't be because she's a girl, she thinks it's unfair.
Bella has deep forest green eyes, very deep midnight black hair with a blue glow and is more a tomboy than a princess. She's a Fae: born as a warrior with the power of Grey Fairy Magic.

I hope you enjoy this and let me know what you think of it.

Third Person POV:

Ben Devereux, son of King Adam and Queen Belle, was waiting outside the school with his dear friend Bella beside him. They were waiting for the new kids to arrive.

"Ben." Bella said.

Ben turned towards her, meeting Bella's electrifying green eyes. "Yes?" he asked.

"Even though everybody will think you made a stupid decision, you didn't." Bella replied. "Second chances are very important."

"Thanks Bella, I knew I could count on you." Ben said.

"Although, I'm curious if that's the only reason." Bella said, looking at Ben through the corners of her eyes.

Ben smiled and looked down before looking at Bella, who was looking at him with an innocent questioning face. But he knew she wasn't that innocent. "You know that the room where I have my tailor appointment watches out over the Isle?"

"Yes, I've seen so myself." Bella replied.

"Well, on one of these appointments, I felt like there was someone there... someone to make me feel complete." Ben tried to explain.

"You're talking about this whole 'Soulmate' thing, do you?" Bella asked with an evil smirk.

"Yes, and don't smirk like that." Ben replied.

"I'll shut my mouth." Bella said.

Right then, the black limo drove around the corner.

Ben's POV:

I held my breath when the limo stopped and the driver stepped out to open the door. I hope I choose the right people who won't threaten Auradon's peace.

The door was opened and a boy with white hair dressed in black, white and red leather fell out of the car, pulling on a pair of jeans.

The other boy, one who was dressed more like a street rat, was pulling on the other pipe of the jeans.

The street rat boy had long black hair, a dark skin and a muscular body.

"Why must you have everything?" the white haired boy asked.

"Because I want it!" the street rat boy said, pulling harder.

Then a girl with purple hair stepped out.

She had immediately my attention, just looking in her light green eyes told me she was the One for me. I was completely breathless when I saw a smile forming on her lips.

Bella rolled with her eyes and stepped towards them. "Boys! Would you please stop fighting?" she kindly asked.

A blue-black haired girl came out, she rolled her eyes at the boys as well.

The boys stopped fighting, the street rat looking up to Bella.

The street rat stood up immediately with a smile. "The name's Jay, mystery lady." he said.

"Well, Jay," Bella kindly addressed him. "would you please lay the stuff back in the limo? Thank you."

The street rat boy, Jay, did, he threw the jeans back in the car and put the cooler back on it's former place.

"I didn't catch your name, mystery lady." Jay said.

Bella gave him a smile. "Bellatrix." she told.

"A very nice name." Jay said.

"It seems you guys have manners, that's a good sign." Bella said as she took her hand back.

I coughed, getting their attention. "Welcome to Auradon, my name is Ben. Me and Bellatrix will lead you around the school."

Bella came back to my side before wanted to start shaking their hands.

I shook Jay's first, whose grip was very firm and strong, just like my own.

Then I shook the hand of the purple haired girl. I looked into her green eyes, and felt like she enchanted me. Her eyes were a little brighter than Bella's, more fuelled with electricity. I immediately knew her name: Mal, daughter of Maleficent.

I presumed I was standing there quite long because Bella poked me quite hard with her right elbow in my side.

I slowly took my hand back and shook the hand of the other boy, who had to be Carlos, son of Cruella de Vil. "I presume you're Carlos?" I asked.

The boy nodded. "Yes, I'm Carlos."

Then I shook the hand of the other girl: Evie, daughter of the Evil Queen.

I looked back at Mal, who was now shaking Bella's hand... but what was that dark sparkle in her eyes? Hostility? Did she presume Bella was my girlfriend? Or was there something else in her eyes I couldn't see from the point I was standing? I'd have to ask Bella later.

I could see the similarities between Bella and Mal: both were fighters, I assume Mal has magic too because of her mother and Bella does have magic, they're both not gold-digging princesses like Audrey and a lot more that I couldn't name yet.

One point... Audrey is my girlfriend, but I don't like her. My father told me to give it a shot since she was raised a princess, but mom told me I should follow my heart when I met the right girl. And I think I just did...

As Bella finished shaking hands, our Headmistress Fairy Godmother, which we always shorten to F.G., interfered.

"Hello children, I am Fairy Godmother, Headmistress." F.G. said.

"Oh! Fairy Godmother from Bibbedy Babbedy Boo?" the blue haired girl asked.

"You know!" F.G. said, a smile on her face.

"I've always wanted to know how Cinderella felt when you appeared in front of her, in that blue dress, with that sparkly wand, the dress..." she ranted.

"Well, let's go shall we? It's already 4 pm." Bella said.

"Come, we have to show you a lot." I said, leading the new students into the school.

Mal's POV:

My friends and I arrived at the school, seeing a drum band playing and loads of people waving with flags joyfully.

"Where have we stranded?" Evie sighed.

"I hope they're not that bad." I said while Carlos and Jay were fighting over a pair of jeans.

As the driver opened the door, Carlos rolled out, falling on the ground while still fighting over the pair of jeans.

"Why must you have everything?" Carlos asked.

"Because I want it!" Jay replied, pulling harder as he got out as well.

I stepped out rolling my eyes.

Then I spotted a very handsome boy, standing right in front of us. He had kind blue eyes, light brown hair, a pale skin and a very kind smile.

The handsome boy was looking straight at me now.

'My, my.' my mind said. 'He's absolutely gorgeous!' A smile formed on my lips.

I had to agree with my mind, then I saw the girl beside him. I growled on the inside, the girl was probably his girlfriend or something like that.

The girl had long black hair, nearly waist-long, green eyes that seemed to glow and a skin that looked natural sun-tanned.

The girl rolled with her eyes as she saw the boys fighting and stepped towards them while Evie stepped out of the car. "Boys! Would you please stop fighting?" her voice sounded very kind, but it could be a trap.

Jay stood up immediately with a smile. "The name's Jay, mystery lady." he said.

"Well, Jay," the unknown girl kindly addressed him. "would you please lay the stuff back in the limo? Thank you."

Jay did, he threw the jeans back in the car and put the cooler back on it's former place.

"I didn't catch your name, mystery lady." Jay said.

The unknown girl gave him a smile. "Bellatrix." she told.

"A very nice name." Jay said.

"It seems you guys have manners, that's a good sign." The girl, Bellatrix, said.

I huffed for a second and rolled my eyes. Did she really think we didn't have manners?

The handsome boy coughed, getting the attention. "Welcome to Auradon, my name is Ben. Me and Bellatrix will lead you around the school."

Ah! so that was his name, Ben. I had expected something different, something more warrior-like.

Bellatrix went back to Ben's side when Ben started shaking our hands, starting with Jay.

When he shook my hand, I looked straight in his blue eyes. It felt like an eternity that we were just standing there, handpalms pressed against each other and staring into each other's eyes. It was a moment like no other.

But Bellatrix had to ruin the moment, poking Ben in his side with her right elbow.

Ben slowly took his hand back, moving to Carlos. "I presume you're Carlos?"

Carlos nodded. "Yes, I'm Carlos." he replied.

Then Ben moved on to Evie, shaking her hand while I had to shake Bellatrix's.

I didn't have a real reason to hate her, I just presumed she was Ben's girlfriend the way he had looked at her. But Bellatrix didn't seem to be a gold-digger or a petty princess who just wanted a crown, she looked a lot like... me?

Then Bellatrix moved on to Carlos, and I was left thinking about it.

When Bellatrix finished shaking Evie's hand, a woman in purple clothers came towards us. She didn't look very strict, but sure I could be wrong. So much for first impressions.

"Hello children, I am Fairy Godmother, Headmistress." the woman said.

Great! Fairy Godmother is the Headmistress of the school! How the hell will we steal her wand now... if we're still on it.

"Oh! Fairy Godmother from Bibbedy Babbedy Boo?" Evie asked.

"You know!" Fairy Godmother said, a smile on her face.

"I've always wanted to know how Cinderella felt when you appeared in front of her, in that blue dress, with that sparkely wand, the dress..." Evie ranted.

"Well, let's go shall we? It's already 4 pm." Bellatrix said.

"Come, we have to show you a lot." Ben said, leading us into the school.

The entrance hall of Auradon Preporatory was clothed in the school colours: yellow and blue. It were as well the colours of the royal family.

"Hello Benny-boo!" a very banshee-like voice said.

We all turned our heads, seeing a brown haired girl with dark brown eyes, a tanned skin and a pretty pink dress.

No accelerating... I had the feeling I nearly had to puke. That dress was ugly!

"Audrey." Bellatrix said, her voice not so friendly and full of anger.

"Well, hello sister." Audrey said, probably not noticing the anger in Bellatrix's voice.

Were this Audrey girl and Bellatrix sisters? I could barely believe that!

"Hi Audrey." Ben said. There was somehow a bit of sadness in his voice.

Audrey grabbed Ben's arm and hooked herself in after she planted a kiss on his cheek.

Bellatrix put her hand in front of her mouth, suggesting she had to puke.

I smiled for a brief second. Maybe I just found a new ally.

"Guys, please meet Audrey, my girlfriend." Ben said, saying the word 'girlfriend' on another tone than the other words he had spoken, on a tone that said 'help me!'

Well, the tone said that to her.

"I think I'll take Evie and Mal to their room." Bellatrix said, grabbing Evie's arm while I just followed them up the stairs.

Bellatrix lead us into a corridor, opening the last door on the left.

"This will be our room for this year." Bellatrix said.

"Wait, room mates?" Evie asked.

"Yup." Bellatrix replied. "I couldn't stand sleeping in the same room as my sister, so I asked Ben to arrange it so that I'll be your room mate."

"You seem to antagonize your sister." I said. "But are you two really sisters?"

Bellatrix chuckled. "I know it seems unlikely, but yes, Audrey is my older twin sister. But we're exact the opposite of each other, as you might have seen." she replied.

"Yeah, I saw that." I said. "One more question, what is your relation with Ben?"

Bellatrix looked at me. "I'm his best friend, we've know each other since we were only 2 years old. Besides that, I've become is unofficial bodyguard and personal advisor." she replied. "Why do you want to know?"

"Just a question, I presumed you were his girlfriend." Mal said, not technically lying.

"It confuses many, but just keep it on the bodyguard and advisor stuff." Bellatrix said "Anyway, call me Bella. Bellatrix is such a mouth full."

"Okay." Evie said as she sat down on a bed, the one closest to the door. "I'm claiming this one!"

"I'll sleep here." Bellatrix said, walking over to the bed that was the closest to the window. "If you don't mind of course."

"Sure I don't." I said.

Bellatrix smiled.

Just a bit later, our stuff arrived and we started to pack out.

Just tell me how this was, I hope you liked it!

R & R please!
